China overtakes US in Online Population:

China overtakes US in Online Population:


The recent news from China Network Information Centre is that China not only has the world's largest popultion but also the largest number of Internet surfers in the world.Estimates say that there are atleast 221 million surfers in China, thus overtaking USA in Internet Traffic. But the bad news for China is that the ratio of Internet Users to the population in China of 16 percent is less than the Global average of 19 percent. But the biggest problem of the chinese surfers are restrictions to almost 30 ercent of the World Wide Web. This figure is not exaggerated and is the truth in the land of Sang Kyi. If not in other areas, we must appreciate the Indian Government for not blocking any domains and allowing the people to choose their own content which is really satisfactory.
